Beauty In Its Simplicity

I've known Renna from many years ago, back to the days when both of us are still students.

Along with few other friends, we were always cramped into 22B on the weekends, doing a lot of foolish crazy things. We shared many memories of trips with the late Dr.Jugah and his family.

Oohh those were the days.

And then, life happens and most of us parted ways. Usually meeting up again during weddings.

Renna and I were the kind of friends who don't talk on a regular basis but when we do, we just pick up where we left off. Of course, as she is friends with my family, she is also a family friend.

God sometimes always works in a mysterious way.

Who would have thought that many years down the road from when we were just measly students, Renna would marry my brother's good friend? 

The story started when my brother asked his friend/colleague, Corbin to tag along for a lunch meet up with Renna, and then they say, the rest is history.

I'm truly honoured and happy when Renna invited me to her wedding, to share in this celebration.

Everything about the wedding is just so Renna. 

There is so much beauty in its simplicity, just like her. From all the years I've known her, she is someone very practical, very simple and classy. 

Nothing brassy, nothing extravagant, nothing noisy, nothing over the top.

But you know what is the most beautiful thing about the wedding? (well at least to me lah).

It was the speech from the father of the bride. It was the most heartfelt wedding speech I've ever heard, so full of love and support for his daughter and new son-in-law.

It started with 

"En. Corbin adalah lelaki yang sangat sangat jahat!" 

Erk okay.. I was like what kind of statement is that kan.

"Sangat jahat kerana telah mencuri hati anak kesayangan saya" Awwww...

"2 kali dia minta kebenaran. Berani betul dia. Kali pertama, dia mintak kebenaran dari kakak Renna untuk berkawan dengan Renna. Kali kedua, dia datang Mukah untuk mintak kebenaran saya, untuk naik level. Honestly, very honest, this En. Corbin is so much better than me when I was at his age."

You gotta admit, that guy really has guts, manners, and respect to do what he did, of asking the girl's family permission to date and marry their daughter/sister.

That really is an honourable and respectful thing to do.

And then her father said 

"En.Corbin, welcome to the family. We as parents, will not hinder your ambition (both of them wanted to pursue their studies). We will support both of you"

Beautiful isn't it?

Congratulations again to Renna and Corbin. May God bless your wonderful journey and be there every step of the way.
